Re: [Ecrit] Changing the LoST Location Profile registry from Standards Action to Specification Required

Hi Ted,

Thanks for your review, I appreciate it.  If I understand, you're 
suggesting that in the IANA Considerations section it not name the 
expert reviewer (I thought I needed to), and to replace "The reviewer 
should use a criteria of a clear need and unambiguous definition for any 
new value" with "The reviewer should verify that any proposed value is 
specified by NENA or another SDO for emergency services, and meets a 
criteria of a clear need and unambiguous definition"? And also replace 
RFC 5226 with RFC 8126.
